Globalization: A Financial Approach
Nicholas V. Gianaris Manufacturer: Praeger Publishers ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0275970760 |
Book Description
The global economy is undergoing dramatic financial changes. The removal of technical, trade, and monetary barriers and the liberalization of world economies create challenges and opportunities for investment and financial transactions. With these changes, international finance is expected to play a vital role in foreign exchange, cross-border capital flows, joint ventures, and economic growth, but rapid progress in telecommunications and electronic capital transfers could lead to tremors in financial markets, making the global economy vulnerable to speculation, investors'panic, and economic fluctuations. Supported by the latest empirical research, this book weaves together a theoretical framework of international finance supported by the latest empirical research. Globalization provides a comprehensive analysis of traditional and modern theories of international monetary systems, problems of balance of payments, exchange rates, and related adjustment and stabilization policies for industrialized and emerging nations. Following a brief historical review, the book covers advanced theories of international trade and finances as well as related real world performance. It examines strengths and weaknesses of fixed and floating exchange rates, forward exchanges, spreading global shareholder capitalism, problems of emerging markets, international capital movements and banking activities, market capitalization and foreign debt. It also examines investment movements and cross-border mergers, economic and financial integration, related effects of macroeconomic policies in open economies, and problems of global income inequalities. The book will be of great theoretical and practical importance to students, scholars, and business leaders.Customer Reviews:

Sustainable Management of Water in Agriculture: Issues and Policies - The Athens Workshop
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development , and OECD Manufacturer: OECD ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 9264160647 |
Book Description
Pressure on the quantity and quality of water from agriculture is a concern in many OECD countries. But the use of water in agriculture is essential to meet growing demands for food, and also provides environmental and social benefits. Key questions for policy makers are how to ensure the sustainable management of water resources in agriculture through coherent policies in the areas of agriculture, water and the environment. The Athens Workshop helped to illustrate what needs to be done to manage water sustainably in agriculture, in particular through reviewing the experiences in OECD countries. The main conclusions are: continuing the reform of agricultural policies; improving the transparency of water management policies; enhancing water pricing mechanisms; ensuring that all stakeholders are involved in policy formulation; and undertaking cost-benefit analyses in the design of water projects, taking into account environmental considerations.

Information Dynamics and Open Systems: Classical and Quantum Approach (Fundamental Theories of Physics)
Roman S. Ingarden , A. Kossakowski , and M. Ohya Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792344731 |
Book Description
This book aims to present an information-theoretical approach to thermodynamics and its generalisations. On the one hand, it generalises the concept of `information thermodynamics' to that of `information dynamics' in order to stress applications outside thermal phenomena. On the other hand, it is a synthesis of the dynamics of state change and the theory of complexity, which provide a common framework to treat both physical and nonphysical systems together. Both classical and quantum systems are discussed, and two appendices are included to explain principal definitions and some important aspects of the theory of Hilbert spaces and operator algebras. The concept of higher-order temperatures is explained and applied to biological and linguistic systems. The theory of open systems is presented in a new, much more general form.

Classical Statistical Mechanics (Fundamental Theories of Physics)
G.A. Martynov Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792347749 |
Book Description
Statistical mechanics deals with systems in which chaos and randomness reign supreme. The current theory is therefore firmly based on the equations of classical mechanics and the postulates of probability theory. This volume seeks to present a unified account of classical mechanical statistics, rather than a collection of unconnected reviews on recent results. To help achieve this, one element is emphasised which integrates various parts of the prevailing theory into a coherent whole. This is the hierarchy of the BBGKY equations, which enables a relationship to be established between the Gibbs theory, the liquid theory, and the theory of nonequilibrium phenomena. As the main focus is on the complex theoretical subject matter, attention to applications is kept to a minimum. The book is divided into three parts. The first part describes the fundamentals of the theory, embracing chaos in dynamic systems and distribution functions of dynamic systems. Thermodynamic equilibrium, dealing with Gibbs statistical mechanics and the statistical mechanics of liquids, forms the second part. Lastly, the third part concentrates on kinetics, and the theory of nonequilibrium gases and liquids in particular. Audience: This book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers whose work involves thermophysics, theory of surface phenomena, theory of chemical reactions, physical chemistry and biophysics.

The Franco-Prussian War: The German Conquest of France in 1870-1871
Geoffrey Wawro Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 052161743X |
Book Description
The Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71 violently changed the course of European History. Alarmed by Bismarck's territorial ambitions and the Prussian army's crushing defeats of Denmark in 1864 and Austria in 1866, French Emperor Napoleon III vowed to bring Prussia to heel. Digging into many European and American archives for the first time, Geoffrey Wawro's Franco-Prussian War describes the war that followed in thrilling detail. While the armies mobilized in July 1870, the conflict appeared "too close to call." Prussia and its German allies had twice as many troops as the French. But Marshal Achille Bazaine's grognards ("old grumblers") were the stuff of legend, the most resourceful, battle-hardened, sharp-shooting troops in Europe, and they carried the best rifle in the world. From the political intrigues that began and ended the war to the bloody battles at Gravelotte and Sedan and the last murderous fights on the Loire and in Paris, this is the definitive history of the Franco-Prussian War. Dr. Geoffrey Wawro is Professor of Strategic Studies at the U.S. Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. Wawro has published two books: The Austro-Prussian War (Cambridge, 1996) and Warfare and Society in Europe, 1792-1914 (Routledge, 2000). He has published articles in The Journal of Military History, War in History, The International History Review, The Naval War College Review, American Scholar, and the European History Quarterly, and op-eds in the Los Angeles Times, New York Post, Miami Herald, Hartford Courant, and Providence Journal. Wawro has won several academic prizes including the Austrian Cultural Institute Prize and the Society for Military History Moncado Prize for Excellence in the Writing of Military History. He has lectured widely on military innovation and international security in Europe, the U.S., and Canada and is host of the History Channel program Hardcover History--a weekly book show with leading historians, pundits, critics, statesmen and journalists.Customer Reviews:

Basic Vehicle Motion Analysis: A Modern Accident Reconstruction Guide (book and CD-Rom)
David N. Dresser Manufacturer: Lawyers & Judges Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Spiral-bound Similar Items:
ASIN: 1930056176 |
Book Description
This text details the 180 most common equations that accident reconstructionists use in their field. Not a reconstructionist? This book gives you the basic vocabulary that you need, as well as examples with each equation. This book is a handy reference for the reconstrucitonist as well.Would you like to know how to convert the length of a skid mark into driving speed? It takes almost no time. Would you like to measure acceleration and deceleration in terms of time and distance? No problem!
Even better, we include a companion computer program. You will be able to solve relatively complex traffic accident reconstruction problems by keying in the needed information. The book shows you the equations on paper, but the software will perform the same equations in an instant!
This text and accompanying program provide the reader with the necessary tools to answer common precollision vehicle motion analysis questions, including:
* If a vehicle is traveling at 57 miles per hour on a dry concrete roadway surface, how much distance will it cover as it brakes to a stop?
* If a vehicle traveling at 63 miles per hour leaves 38 feet of skid marks before it collides with a pedestrian, what is its speed at impact?
* If a vehicle moves across an intersection after stopping at a stop sign, how long will it take the vehicle to clear the intersection?
These are just a few examples of the questions that arise during basic traffic accident reconstruction. This text and the companion program make answering these questions and more as simple as using a four-function desk calculator.
CD-ROM is Windows 95/98 compatible and works best with 32MB RAM and a Pentium processor.

Assessing the Hazard of Metals and Inorganic Metal Substances in Aquatic and Terrestrial Systems
William J. Adams Manufacturer: CRC Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1420044400 |
Book Description
Current procedures used for hazard identification and classification are based on persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity measurements. Assessing the Hazard of Metals and Inorganic Metal Substances in Aquatic and Terrestrial Systems provides the basis for improvements to the current model for hazard assessment. The book reviews the scientific underpinnings of the use of persistence as applied to metals, including bioavailability, and the use of bioaccumulation to evaluate aquatic species and aquatic-linked food chains. It also examines toxicity procedures as used within PBT approaches and measurements for metals in terrestrial ecosystems. The book brings together a multidisciplinary and international group of scientists, managers, and policy makers from Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States to discuss various means for assessing the environmental hazard posed by metals and inorganic metal substances. The contributors include representatives from regulatory and nonregulatory government agencies, academia, industry, environmental groups, and consulting firms involved in assessment, management, and basic research of metals and metal substances. They provide a focused discussion of the fate and effects of metals in the environment, incorporating important advances developed over the past decade.
